MHB Subscripts that look like subscripts ....

The discussion centers on formatting subscripts in mathematical notation, specifically in the context of category theory and functors. The original poster seeks advice on how to properly format the variables f and g with a subscript P, as the current formatting makes P appear concatenated with the letters. A suggested solution involves using LaTeX formatting, specifically f_{\Large_P}, to achieve the desired appearance of the subscript. The conversation highlights the importance of clear mathematical representation in academic discussions.

I have just finished a post on category theory and functors in the Linear and Abstract Algebra Forum ... post #3 in the thread ...Thread: https://mathhelpboards.com/linear-abstract-algebra-14/functor-any-category-preorder-category-awodey-exercise-8-chapter-1-a-24883.htmlI wanted to use f subscript P and g subscript P in the text ... but the letter P looks as if it is concatenated with f and g ... how do I get these variables to look as if they are genuinely subscripted ...The variables (actually arrows) look like $$f_P$$ and $$g_P$$ ... basically I would like to shift the letter P lower ...

Any ideas ...

Try something like:

f_{\Large_P}

to get:

$$f_{\Large_P}$$
